Abstract
This study investigated the differences in boredom proneness (BP) and private self-consciousness (PSC) between undergraduate and graduate students. Also, the study explored the relationships between BP and PSC. The sample consisted of 165 students at Yarmouk university (113 at the bachelor's level, 52 at the master's level). Two scales were used one for BP, and the other for PSC. Results showed that undergraduate students scored significantly higher on the subscale of lack of internal stimulation (LOIS), whereas graduate students scored significantly higher on the scale of PSC. Additionally, for undergraduate students there was a significant negative relationship between LOIS and PSC, whereas for graduate students there was a significant negative relationship between Lack of External Stimulation LOES and PSC.
